The Boggy Bottom Boys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I woke dear I was mistaken
And I hung my head and I cried
Chorus
You are my Sunshine
My only Sunshine
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my Sunshine away
I'll always love you and make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me and love another
You'll regret it all some day
Repeat Chorus
You told me once dear, you really love me
And no one could come between
But now you've left me to love another
You have shattered all my dreams
Repeat Chorus
In all my dreams dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart aches
So won't you come back and make me happy
I'll forgive dear, I'll take all the blame
Repeat Chorus

The other night dear, as I lay sleepin'
During one of my latest nights, as I was asleep
I dreamed I held you in my arms
I dreamt that you were held tightly in my arms
But when I woke dear I was mistaken
But upon waking up, I found that it was just a dream
And I hung my head and I cried
And I felt so sad that I had to put my head down and shed some tears
You are my Sunshine
You bring so much light into my life
My only Sunshine
You're the only one capable of bringing such light into my life
You make me happy when skies are grey
Your presence has the ability to uplift me even when everything else seems dull and gloomy
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
You'll never fully understand just how much affection I hold towards you
Please don't take my Sunshine away
Please don't take away the joy and happiness you bring into my life
I'll always love you and make you happy
I'll always strive to show you love and happiness
If you will only say the same
But only if you're willing to do the same
But if you leave me and love another
But if you choose to leave me and love someone else
You'll regret it all some day
You'll eventually feel remorse for your actions
You told me once dear, you really love me
You previously expressed that you loved me very much
And no one could come between
And nobody would be capable of ruining our relationship
But now you've left me to love another
But now you've abandoned me to pursue another love interest
You have shattered all my dreams
You have destroyed all of my hopes and aspirations
In all my dreams dear, you seem to leave me
Even in my dreams, it feels like you're leaving me behind
When I awake my poor heart aches
When I wake up, my heart is filled with agony and pain
So won't you come back and make me happy
So won't you please return and bring joy back into my life
I'll forgive dear, I'll take all the blame
I'll forgive you and take responsibility for everything that went wrong
You are my Sunshine
You bring so much light into my life
My only Sunshine
You're the only one capable of bringing such light into my life
You make me happy when skies are grey
Your presence has the ability to uplift me even when everything else seems dull and gloomy
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
You'll never fully understand just how much affection I hold towards you
Please don't take my Sunshine away
Please don't take away the joy and happiness you bring into my life

THIS sir, Understanding This, is Salvation
HalleluYAH translates “Praise ye YaH”
YaH is The Heavenly Father
YaH arrives via the TENT OF MEETING
YaH was Who they Crucified for our sins
** NO FEMALE INVOLVED WHATSOEVER **
— Hebrew Book of Isaiah
Isaiah 42:8
"I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.
Isaiah 43:11
I, I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.
Isaiah 45:5
I am YaH, and there is none else.

Guys, HERE is The TRUE Savior
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins, NOT jesus, and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL" <— YaH’s Crucifixion
He - "Behold the Breath"
“Behold the HAND that Beholds The NAIL”
PROVES - YAH The Heavenly Father HIMSELF was Who they Crucified
That is EXACTLY what Moses Wrote
Here is what they mean
YaH's Name:
(Ya)d + (H)e, as YaH is what Moses called Him and YaH Declared: "this is My Name, this is My Name for all generations" (Exodus 3)
YaH is The Creator of “MAN”:
Yad He, (HAND BREATH), as YaH's "HAND" Formed man from the dust of the Earth and His "BREATH" made him a living being (Adam)
YaH's Sacrifice of Crucifixion for “MAN”:
Vav He (NAIL BREATH), the "NAIL" through YaH’s "HAND", in Sacrifice of Crucifixion, that whosoever shall call YaH Savior, His “BREATH” brings forth life (Salvation)
How YaH arrives:
YaH arrives via the Tent of Meeting (Exodus 33:7:11, Isaiah 54, 55), where a Tent is erected outside the city, a cloud descends upon the entrance of the Tent and YaH appears...
Why they demanded YaH to be Crucified:
YaH was Crucified according to Hebrew law (Deuteronomy 21), to be Hung on an Almond Tree for BLASPHEMY as it was for His NAME they demanded Him Crucified. The Messiah claimed He was YaH...
HE WAS YaH!!!

My dad is not a movie goer (probably 3-4 in his lifetime) and I didn’t care for trailer.
Somehow my mom convinced him to watch the movie.
When I returned home from college, the movie came up in conversation and dad said it was, “A pretty good movie”.
Guess who bought the movie and the soundtrack before he went back to college and wore them out afterwards?
Miss you dad (Jan 2015). Until we meet again.

I heard that the man who sang this told his wife that she would hear his voice, but it would be coming out of George Clooney's face. She apparently said, "That's all I've ever wanted."
